    Fallout Skyrim Doom Wolfenstein Potentially Crash Bandicoot, Call of Duty, Overwatch & Diablo Microsoft currently owns or will own the most iconic third party IPS in the industry, if this ain't a monopoly then what. What's worse is they might mess all of these up.

  • stashofstripes Tiger (@stashofstripes) reported

    Another day, another failed attempt to play Overwatch. I've got one more idea in mind and then...I don't know, I might just need to give up. I keep hoping the new updates might fix something and stop it from freezing, but it may just be my computer at this point.

  • reverse_dagger meek escutcheon (@reverse_dagger) reported

  • Shaineboi Shaine 🦈 (@Shaineboi) reported

    @BlizzardCS is there an issue with Xbox and logging into Overwatch 2? I haven’t been able to play all day, just stuck on the title screen and I can’t interact with anything (A to enter game or X to choose user)

  • lozadarick ,! (@lozadarick) reported

    @SamitoFPS Zen player here I never really found that to be an issue. I try to stick with my team and while keeping overwatch (no pun intended) on everyone and everything. I know I'm the slowest character in game and I'm okay with that. Just means I have to focus a bit more on positioning.

  • CaptAnneMarvel Carol Anne-akin Skywalker (@CaptAnneMarvel) reported

    Worst and most infuriating night ever ends in a network error and disconnect from a computer match So you know Overwatch 2 Second verse same as the first 🙃

  • War_Causes_It Deppresso Espresso (Cyberpunk arc) (@War_Causes_It) reported

    @7mgteProject @angel98754 @SYACVG Well, Overwatch 2 is f2p, so as long as they aren't spending money on the cosmetics or battlepasses, there's no issue.

  • KingScovrge KING SCOURGE 👑 (@KingScovrge) reported

    Any other Overwatch players feel like Zarya is like beyond broken at the moment?

    @hirotokazuya246 @zastelatv Overwatch is the only game that I have seen Shroud consistently tilt lol. Its not technical issues, the game is just super frustrating sometimes.

  • Beeftipsy Beeftipsy (@Beeftipsy) reported

    Is there a glitch making people stay the same rank on overwatch? I've gone through 3 or 4 sets of 7 wins and it hasnt moved me either up or down from GM4. Feels like im playing quickplay

    @GamerKraytos it's a double edged sword pretty much, like, i want everyone that ****** up to be held accountable on activision, but here i am having fun with overwatch 2 and they'd easily win me over with a new crash and spyro game lol what's that saying again? between a rock and a hard place

  • kylefraser1 Kyle (@kylefraser1) reported

    @TwitchRussel It's wild. My sources tell me her last couple of streams she's been "having problems" with her internet and being able to play overwatch / connect to blizzard services. She said she would love to just be able to play games but can't until they get it fixed. Her husband is wild.

  • FutureDiaryGod UndyingHermit (@FutureDiaryGod) reported

    @YZNSA_ Least that was playable, ever since I merged my account from Overwatch to Overwatch 2, I've been locked out due to "login error".

  • Jackithink Jack (@Jackithink) reported

    @notPotatoe_ overwatch has been distracting me from my problems so i'm good :D

  • Random_Factor The Winchester Mystery Rei_ (@Random_Factor) reported

    My big problem with Overwatch as a game is that I feel that I'm constantly being pushed to play support so I never get to do anything else and that's really not a thing they fixed in OW2

  • PoisedAssassin 𝓐. 𝑳𝒂𝒄𝒓𝒐𝒊𝒙 (@PoisedAssassin) reported

    @SpectraIBeast I don’t fail — I have tactical errors. The little pest is but a fly in my web. Another toy to torture slowly in the downfall of Overwatch. You are too busy pining over friendships and lovers lost to grasp the capabilities of your powers. You are 𝒑𝒂𝒕𝒉𝒆𝒕𝒊𝒄.

  • Scharpiee Scharpie (@Scharpiee) reported

    @Blizzard_Ent is there an issue with buying the overwatch 2 battle pass? I have the coins and it says the purchase failed

  • JJCarson16 JJ Carson (@JJCarson16) reported

  • Youngjae_Lee295 샤오첸루 (@Youngjae_Lee295) reported

    I don't understand what's happening but I've not have Overwatch 2 stutter so much. Literally everyone was flying all over the map I had no clue what I was doing. Then the Ana complains like a baby and I still out healed her even lagging, but no, blame me even when I did my part.

  • fissure_spawn Kitsune Wisp (@fissure_spawn) reported

    Comp is so toxic, lmao My friend's Overwatch was bugged and he didn't actually see the enemy Soldier, it's a common issue too if you look it up. And the enemy said "Mad cuz bad". We aren't mad? We lost, then laughed about the bug. And then an ally said "Bronze reality check" wtf
